The pandemic really did a number on how we perceive sex. But as the world sexual wellness giant LELO uncovered, luckily, it did in a good way.
The trends in sexual wellness demonstrate a shift in attitude to being more flexible and open-minded regarding our sex lives. We see this reflected in the normalising of sexual acts, desires and attitudes previously unspoken about or hidden, according to LELO. This approach to sexual wellness being included and recognised as a part of our overall health and well-being looks like it is here to stay, and we should expect it to be the foundation from which all future sex trends stem.
Even in the post-pandemic and post-overturning Roe v. Wade world, people continue on the path of self-knowledge, self-discovery and sexual liberation. Breaking away from shame and taboo and moving towards education and understanding about sex, sexuality, and sexual health is such a positive shift in helping people to get to a place of sexual health and wellness in whatever form that looks like for them, rather than feeling that they need to fit themselves into a model of sex, which they think they ‘should’ be.
